Gearless Center Differential

Safety. The vehicle is safer to drive due the "wind-up" being eliminated from the drive train. Wind-Up is what happens when the vehicles wheels "fight" each other - They want to turn at different speeds when cornering. The GCD eliminates this effect meaning that the vehicle is more drivable, and therefore safer.

Maintenance. The above-mentioned wind-up creates an enormous amount of stress and strain on the entire drive train. By eliminating that stress, the on-going running costs of the vehicle are greatly reduced. The main area where this is evident is with the CV Joints. The feedback from some customers indicates a life expectancy for CV Joints of around 7 to 10 times that of a vehicle without a GCD fitted.

Cost Savings. With the true cost of around $1500 to $2000 to replace a set of CV Joints including bearings etc, the initial outlay of the GCD would effectively be paid for in full within the first 9 to 12 months of use in a mining vehicle - In some cases even less. Added to this is the savings in downtime of the vehicle, making the GCD an investment for the future.

Split CV Boots

There is no need to remove your CV Joints to fit or change the Split CV Boots, unless you are changing the felt kit as well.

The Split CV Boots are designed to be long lasting and offer great protection from the elements. We do advise that you check your felts on the CV housing and fit these at the same time if they are becoming work or hard.

You need to be careful not to squash or pinch the accordion section of the Split CV Boot when putting the oil seal ratainers on. This may tear the boot, and this is not covered by warranty. Aside from that, just ensure that all bolts are tightened to the correct torque settings which are provided in the installation instructions.

Although nothing else is required to fit the Split CV Boots, we do recommend fitting new felts and oil seal retainers if your vehicle has been used in wet or adverse conditions. These are not expensive to purchase, however you will need to remove the CV Joint to replace the felt seal.

Exhaust Brakes

In general, Exhaust Brakes work best with vehicles that do not have an engine ECU/Exhaust Gas Sensors. Adding an Exhaust Brake to a vehicle which has an engine ECU or Exhaust Gas Sensors can be troublesome and you may find it difficult to obtain good operation and good fuel economy.

Exhaust Brakes do not work with Common-Rail Diesel motors.

Some additional items may be required if the vehicle has a turbo fitted. This is generally an EGR blanking plate, although a small hole in the blanking plate will be required on some vehicles.

For older vehicles that are not common-rail diesel, are not turbo and do not have any exhaust gas sensors fitted, they should work extremely well.
